Comment on The future of insect farming is data drivenparent

Comments

Many insects serve as vectors to move parasites around. I used to work with parasitic nematodes that rode on clies and other insects to move around. Insect farms would need to take care to not allow these to enter the population.

Also, genetic diversity is an issue. Crickets with little genetic diversity are prone to disease.
